    Another story you may like.

    The card shop I always go into is run by an elderly man. Ive been going in there for 14 years or so, so i know him really well. He is a really good guy, and gives me deals and stuff. Well I went in there today to pick up my Gridiron Gear box (which ill post in the trade forum) and there was another box of gridiron gear that had some packs gone sitting up on the counter. He said count them, and there were 6 missing. He said someone had stole them, which made me mad because why would someone take advantage of a really nice older man. He said taht the guy asked him to go back in the back and look for something, when he went back there the guy took them. He said he didnt notice intil later on they were gone. Anyway, I opened my box which i was disapointed in since my last box had 9 hits! So i bought the rest of what he had. I got 3 hits out of the remaining 12 packs, which means if the box only had 3 hits like its supposed to,then the guy that stole the 6 packs got NOTHING. Which makes me pretty happy. HAHA. Go check my thread in the football trade forum for the goods.

    I despise people that are like that. If I had my druthers, I would take them out back and beat them unmercifully.

    He desereved that, and I hope that anymore people that try to take advantage of elderly people get what they really deserve. Congrats on your hits from the packs.
